Heart

To follow your heart

Is to follow desires.

Most dangerous at time

Because of avid liars.

They can’t stay straight

Turn into heart breakers

What you want is

Sorrowfully unattainable

Highly devoted

To someone you don’t know.

Scared half to death because of past things

Honestly, you don’t know what to believe.

They say it’s okay

In every way.

All you want is what you can’t have

And what you get goes terribly bad

Of course

That’s how things works

It’s truly sad

I wish things were different

Every single day

Only because I want to be with you.

[Devons]

A real nice poem. Straight, neat, and nicely laid-out. And these lines encapsulate much that speaks of fear of new love...

"Highly devoted
To someone you don’t know.
Scared half to death because of past things"

..Someone you don't know. That's the heart of the matter. that's part of both the attraction and the problem.
